Roulette is a incredibly sneaky, manipulative and devious villian who makes her money in many illegal rackets, most notably fighting tournaments involving metahumans. She is a formidable martial artist herself and can fight with the best.

Origin

Roulette is the owner of meta-human fight clubs where superhumans battle each other for sport. Her grandmother was the original Roulette who battled the original Mr. Terrific, while dating his brother Ned. As Veronica grew up she at some point learned of her legacies and came to believe Mr. Terrific to be her grandfather rather than granduncle and believed the current Mr. Terrific unworthy of the name, she then battled the JSA and it's members multiple times. Heroes that have died while battling in her ring are the third Firebrand, the first Maxi-Man, FlyBoy, Ram of the New Guardians, Pterodon, Behemoth, Gorgon, and Prometheus of The Hybrid and Impala of the Global Guardians.

There is a wall dedicated to the fallen called Fallen Players of the House. A picture of Scirocco and Touch N' Go are on the wall. They have been seen as members of Circe's all female group.
